During this period, because of her rebellious mindset, he slowed his pace, but it didn't mean he intended to back down.
His more direct words completely startled Le Tong. Unsure how to respond, she brought the phone to her face and pressed the end call button.
On the other end, Ji Rui suddenly heard the busy tone, hesitated for a moment, then realized the call had been disconnected.
Ji Rui frowned, stared at the screen in a daze for a while, contemplating whether to call back, but eventually decided not to push her too hard.
He put the phone on the bed, picked up a sweater and put it on with delight. Feeling very satisfied with his outfit in front of the mirror, Ji Rui took his first-ever selfie. After taking the photo, he pulled up Le Tong's number and typed "Am I handsome?" before sending the photo.
Le Tong, still dazing on the couch, heard the notification sound, opened the message, and saw the spirited man filling the screen, wearing the sweater she bought him.
